Phosphor particles of spherical shape and uniform size are desired for high‐definition displays to improve the resolution and the overall luminescent performance. However, the synthesis of RE3BO6 spherical particles is a considerable challenge in materials science. Here, uniform spheres of RE3BO6 (RE = Eu–Yb, Y) have been converted from their colloidal precursor spheres synthesized via homogeneous precipitation. The amorphous precursor spheres are solid particles with decreased boron going from the surfaces to the cores. Smaller particles were observed at decreased ionic radius from Eu3+ to Ho3+ (including Y3+), but particles with nearly unvaried sizes were observed by further decreasing the ionic radius from Ho3+ to Yb3+. They crystallized in monoclinic RE3BO6 at 900°C, with maintaining the spherical shape of precursors. However, the crystal growth and the densification toward the particle surfaces resulted in the formation of hollow spheres for smaller particles and core‐shell structured spheres for larger particles. The parameters, a, b, and c, increase nearly monotonically with increasing the radius of rare earth ions. The uniform spheres of Y3BO6:Eu3+ exhibited a typical red emission at ~613 nm (5D0 → 7F2 electric dipole transition of Eu3+), with an intensity ratio I(5D0 → 7F2)/I(5D0 → 7F1) of ~3.5. The luminescence behavior of Y3BO6:Eu3+ phosphor is dependent on the excitation wavelength, which is closely related to the Eu3+ ions at different coordination sites. Driven by a 460‐nm blue‐LED chip, the Y3BO6:Eu3+ spheres exhibited a red emission with the CIE coordinates of (~0.65, ~0.35), indicating that they are an excellent red‐emitting phosphor candidate for application in white‐LEDs.
